Oh my goodness have you people even read this amendment? CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT #1 Section 35. That agriculture which provides food, energy, health benefits, and security is the foundation and stabilizing force of Missouri’s economy. To protect this vital sector of Missouri’s economy, the right of farmers and ranchers to engage in farming and ranching practices shall be forever guaranteed in this state, subject to duly authorized powers, if any, conferred by article VI of the Constitution of Missouri.

No where does it say anything about Monsanto, or corporate farms, or foreign investors. Its merely allowing us to keep farming the way we've been doing without interruption by people who know nothing about how a farm works. Look at North Dakota, they passed an amendment very similar to this and it hasn't hurt them at all. Now look at California, they did not pass anything like this and the number of unnecessary sanctions has driven many of their food producers out of state or out of business!
